I have a friend in pain management clinic that does monthly drug tests. She smoked some weed a while back and was worried that her doctor may kick her out of the clinic if weed showed up in her system. She has told me that she goes to her local health food store and asks the clerk for something to cleanse her system for a urinalysis. Says they sell her a bottle or two of some stuff and she takes it. I can't say if it works or not, but I guess it's worth a try.
Also it depends on how much weed you smoke. It makes a difference if you just smoked a joint or two a couple days ago, or if you're a daily smoker of the chronic. If you just smoked a joint recently, drinking plenty of water and juice and flushing out your system could do the trick especially if you're a male (less body fat, where THC is stored.) If you're a long term, regular smoker, you're out of luck. THC can stay in your system for 30 days or more.
Please take this is as a lesson learned. Almost all companies worth working for do drug testing these days. Good luck.
Edit: The test for weed use sucks, IMO. The test is unfair, in that a person will test positive whether they smoked 30 minutes ago or a week ago. Is it really fair to fire someone based on a positive result for marijuana, even tho that marijuana use was done on one's own time days or weeks ago?

Tips for the day of your test:
Wake up very early and immediately drink a good amount of water that your stomach can comfortably take in. Urinate, and repeat this. (Don't overdo it on the water consumption -- just as much as you can comfortably drink.)
Whatever you do.....make sure that your sample is not your first urination of the day. The earlier the test is, the earlier you will need to get up that morning.
Also... when you go to give the sample..... pee a bit first into the toilet, and then give your sample. (The first pee that comes out will be more concentrated).
As for this weekend.....
Drinking tons of water this weekend is not really going to do anything for you -- the MJ is in your fat cells.
I wouldn't exercise 24 hours before your drug test because it will spill it into your waste (from your burned fat cells).
If you really think you are going to fail, then maybe go sign up for outpatient treatment, so if you get busted, you have that to offer.
Passing this is all going to depend on how heavy a smoker you are. If you are a heavy/frequent smoker, then it can take weeks to get it out of your system. If you smoke half a joint once a week, then it would take a few days probably. The THC builds up in your system.
If you are lucky and pass this test, I totally suggest that you smoke on special occasions only (not more than once a week and only inhale the minimum you need to get your high).
Also, it's important to exercise daily (speed up metabolism to process it out of your system faster).

it takes longer than 10 days for it to completely come out of your system. whether you drink a gallon of water or 100 gallons, it's not going to change how much is in your system. because it is a chemical within the body. to give you an example there is a drugs used by hospitals that can stay within the body for 40 days and some that even stay around for a year.

You need to speed up your metabolism - go running or have a work out, drink plenty of fluids and drink plenty of caffeine based drinks - you'll look a hyper-wreck on Monday but you may have speeded your metabolism sufficiently to give a negative reading earlier than if your body's left to it's normal pattern.
Hope all those munchies don't prevent the work out.

The only way to avoid testing positive for a drug test is to not use them.
On the other hand, sometimes, these tests *do* give false positives, not that you can count on them knowing or caring about that.
My best advice is simply to not work for a company who feels like it has a right to inspect your urine.
For all those people chiding him for smoking weed, welcome to the real world, please grow up and realize that you don't have to approve of what everyone else does all of the time.

Go to a herb shop. Expect to spend $20-30. They'll hook you up. And you can STILL learn a lesson. Don' pay them christians NO attention. They get prescriptions to get high, so they're legal.

Eat walnut shells with lots of salt.
You've got a problem - welcome to the real world where there are consequences to what you do.
Take this as a lesson to be responsible.
